I'm looking for a new notebook, preferably around 13", maybe 14" if it is small/light.
I've been looking at the Dell Studio XPS 13 but I can't keep looking at the 13" Macbook Pro. My friend just picked up a Macbook Pro and I played around with it for a little while. I certainly like the size and slim form of it, and while I dislike OS X, I can always bootcamp it.
I'm looking for suggestions for other notebooks to check out, but I'd like to keep it rather small and portable since I do have a desktop. It doesn't need to be a supremely powerful desktop replacement, but I don't want netbook-like specs. I also hate when laptops burn my lap after short usage, and I know the XPS isn't exactly the coolest running. A cool running notebook would actually be a pretty strong selling point for me.
Price range I would like to keep it under what a Macbook Pro would cost me, that's a little on the high end as it is.
Thanks in advance.
